TDQS
Scored across 7 tools
Each tool targets a distinct action or resource: creating personal vs publication posts, fetching profile vs RSS feed, listing publications vs contributors, and uploading images. No overlap.
All tools follow a consistent verb_noun pattern in snake_case (e.g., create_post, get_profile, list_publications), making them predictable and easy to understand.
7 tools is a well-scoped set for a Medium integration, covering posting, profile retrieval, RSS, publications, contributors, and image upload without being excessive.
The tool set covers the primary Medium API operations: creating posts (personal and publication), retrieving profile and RSS, listing publications and contributors, and uploading images. No obvious gaps given typical API limitations.
